The annual ACM Symposium on Cloud Computing (SoCC’26) brings together researchers, developers, users, and practitioners interested in cloud computing. ACM SoCC’26 is the 17th edition of the premier conference on cloud computing; it is the only conference co-sponsored by the ACM Special Interest Groups on Management of Data (SIGMOD) and Operating Systems (SIGOPS).

SoCC’26 will take place in person in Singapore. As in prior SoCC conferences, SoCC’26 will foster connections between the academic and industrial communities operating in the cloud space.

We solicit original contributions on all aspects of cloud computing. We particularly encourage submissions on the research, development, practice, and experience of cloud computing systems and data management. Specific topics of interest include but are not limited to the following, when related to the cloud:

    Administration, service level agreements, and manageability
    Blockchain systems, Byzantine fault tolerance, and decentralized ledgers
    Confidential computing
    Cross data center data management
    Datacenter architectures
    Data markets and data economy
    Distributed and networked systems
    Distributed/parallel query processing and optimization
    Edge and fog computing
    Energy efficiency, sustainability, and management
    Fault tolerance, high availability, and reliability
    Internet-of-Things infrastructure and cyber-physical systems
    Large-scale cloud applications
    Multi-tenancy in the cloud
    Networking and communication
    Operating systems and system support
    Platform-as-a-Service and other cloud models
    Privacy and security
    Programming models for cloud (e.g., serverless, microservices)
    Resource management, allocation, scheduling, provisioning, and metering
    Scientific data management and workflows
    Sky computing
    Storage systems and new storage technologies
    Machine learning for clouds and cloud-based systems
    Systems for machine learning training and/or serving
